Thomas Jefferson knew because he himself studied
the previous failed attempts at government. He understood actual history, the
nature of God, his laws and the nature of man. That happens to be way more than
what most understand today. Jefferson really knew his stuff. A voice from the
past to lead us in the future:

John F. Kennedy held a dinner in the white House
for a group of the brightest minds in the nation at that time. He made this
statement: “This is perhaps the assembly of the most intelligence ever to
gather at one time in the White House with the exception of when Thomas
Jefferson dined alone.”

“When we
get piled upon one another in large cities, as in Europe, we shall become as
corrupt as Europe .” (Big cities of USA
ultra liberal and control)

— Thomas Jefferson

“The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work
and give to those who would not.”
(Welfare in every form 50M in USA getting government
aid)
— Thomas Jefferson

“It is incumbent on every generation to pay
its own debts as it goes. A principle which if acted on would save one-half the
wars of the world.”

— Thomas Jefferson

“I predict future happiness for Americans
if they can prevent the government from wasting
the labours of the people under the pretence of taking care of
them.” Taxes and more
taxes
— Thomas Jefferson

“My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from too much government.”
(That is for sure now and Obamacare will increase it.)

— Thomas Jefferson

“No free man shall ever be debarred the use
of arms.”

— Thomas Jefferson

“The strongest reason for the people to
retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a
last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.”

— Thomas Jefferson

“The tree of liberty must be refreshed from
time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.”

— Thomas Jefferson

“To compel
a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves
and abhors is sinful and tyrannical.”

— Thomas Jefferson

Thomas Jefferson said in 1802:

“I believe that banking institutions are
more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies.

If the American people ever allow private banks
to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation,
the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the
people of all property – until their children wake-up homeless on the continent
their fathers conquered.”
